"In passing, also, I would like to say that the first time
Adam had a chance, he laid the blame on a
woman."
--Lady Nancy Astor
Lesson Three
The Jewish religion has the Torah, The Muslims have the Koran, and the Christians have the Bible. What do we have? More than you might think or realize. Sadly, a lot of literature has been lost over the Centuries either due to time, distruction or word of mouth that did not get written down. Happily, we are both recreating the old or creating new literature for us to learn from. This lesson is to familiarize yourself with what is out there. I have many pieces available for you to look at. The most important are the "Charge of the Goddess", "The Charge of the God", and "Principles of Belief" Read what I have, and see what you can find. Many answers can be found on my web pages or using the "Links" page.
